Exclusive: 'Seinfeld' cast to appear on 'Curb Your Enthusiasm'

seinfeld_l.jpg The Seinfeld cast is making another must-see appearance. EW has learned exclusively that the four stars of NBC's long-running comedy -- Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander, and Michael Richards -- will be featured in a multiple-episode story arc on HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm this fall. The cameos will mark the first time that all four actors have appeared together in a scripted TV show since Seinfeld went off the air nearly 11 years ago. No date has been set for this event, or for Curb's seventh season, which will run for 10 weeks. Curb, of course, was created by and stars Larry David, the cocreator of Seinfeld.

The episodes, which are currently shooting in Los Angeles, appear to represent a continuation of David's relationship with the Seinfeld stars. As Curb fans know, Seinfeld, Louis-Dreyfus, and Alexander have made individual appearances on the award-winning series over the years.

Cast reunions are almost always hokie and disappointing. I wish they would leave the timeless magic those actors--and one comedian--created alone.

I dunno Borgo...if this was a Seinfeld reunion as opposed to an appearance within the CUrb your Enthusiasm concept I'd agree.

If anyone could pull this off its Larry David.

Agree 100%. What other writer could make Richard Lewis a watchable character?

I actually prefer Curb to Seinfeld, as I find Larry David to be hilarious on-screen.

Now that I "know" Larry David, I actually get a kick out of watching Seinfeld and seeing his touch, hearing his voice-overs for Steinbrenner, etc..

His sensibilities are very present in a lot of it.

Crap, I remember Michael Richards and Larry David starring in "Fridays" years and years ago!

I agree that Larry David is one of the few that can pull this off. I just haven't liked any of the projects they have chosen after Seinfeld. I'll go on record as saying that--IMO--the "reunion" has a 75% probability of sucking. Though, I hope I'm wrong.

In one of my favorite Seinfeld episodes David plays Frank Costanza's caped lawyer. Can't wait to see what he with this reunion.

I'll start:

32 (Bursts through door) "aaaaaaahhheyy, Borgo...I'm gonna need that wood chipper again, like pronto!" (looks around frantically)

INT. DAY MAX' OFFICE, JETNATION COMPLEX

FADE IN TO 32 GREEN, DRESSED AS SAMMY HAGAR FROM HIS "RED ROCKER" DAYS, BLONDE CURLY WIG AND ALL, WHO BURSTS THROUGH THE DOOR. HE IS OUT OF BREATH FROM A LONG SCAMPER FROM THE WOODS. IN THE ROOM IS BORGOGUY--A REGAL, YET POWERFUL PRESENCE--WHO IS BEING ORALLY SERVICED BY THE JAPANESE A.V. ACTRESS, MARIA OZAWA, WHO IS NAKED AND ON HER KNEES IN FRONT OF BORGOGUY.

BORGOGUY

(Jumping up, stunned, causing a popping sound from Ms. Ozawa's mouth)

What the hell is wrong with you, 32? I'm busy here, Dude.

SEEING THAT HE HAS SPOILED A ROMANTIC INTERLUDE, 32 GREEN REMOVES A SMALL PEN KNIFE FROM HIS PANTS POCKET AND GIVES HIMSELF A TRACHEOTOMY.

FADE OUT.

OMG. The Cincinnati Bowtie scene that follows is one that really tickles the soul.

I thought that went well.

You can do it. I know you don't have much formal training as an actor. But your life's experiences will most certainly allow you to develop your craft.

Not to quibble, but how much more work will I get after being typecast as spontaneous self-tracheotomy guy?

But, hey, you get blown and appear authoritative in that scene.

Dont want to "steal the scene"...."dim your star", whatever.

See, I think you come off sensitive, trustworthy, and willing to go to any means necessary to make amends with your buddy. This has "chick magnet" potential--and cross marketing aspects--written all over it. To make it perfect, though, let's scrap the Sammy garb, and have you outfitted in authentic Tyrolean lederhosen.

If its chick magnet you were shooting for, you would have allowed the woodchipper bit to follow its natural course....

The way you scripted it, there was no way for the audience to know about the bamboo cage-cart with the screaming third graders right outside the door....(from the Planet of the Apes collection-NOT EASY TO GET)

And again with the popping C**K gag, the Asian knee-whore and the Tyrolean lederhosen? You HAVE seen "Friends" have you not? Steal much?

I have no time to be the home-schooled chimp in a Borgo vanity production.

I was in the army for ten years, I got all the corn holing I needed there, and it hurt less

LOL. I'm lost, 32. When did they have a BJ scene on Friends? LOL.

Matthew Perry..... with that pig...you know.

( what are you doing coming out of character to question one bad fact out of a sea of concocted nonsenz? jeez Borgo wtf)

LD knows what he's doing. I wouldn't sweat it.

I imagine what happens with this "reunion" will be crazy on the show.

(That is the character. We get into a fight over creative differences. Sssshhh.)

Always with the Matthew Perry comparisons, huh 32? Give it a f**king rest already, will you. The f**king guy is a hack. Face it. He's not coming back to network TV. No matter how many letters you write. All this angst directed towards me, and I even wrote another scene. That's the thanks I get. What a moron you are. How many years we go back? 20? 25? I not still that kid that you eviscerated up at the park for missing that layup. God damn you were cruel. I missed the f**king shot. I did my best. F**k!

32: I feel bad about our argument. I was wrong to write you out of that scene so quickly. Here, check it out. I wrote a new version with the main focus on you. People don't care about me anyway. I look forward to your notes.

INT. A DARKENED BEDROOM IN CALISTOGA, CALIFORNIA. OVER BLACK, WE HEAR THE RESTLESS RUSTLING OF BED LINENS AND MOANS. AFTER A FEW BEATS, A WOMAN, MARGO--30ISH WITH HER HAIR IN A BUN--SCREAMS AND JUMPS UP FROM HER SLEEPING POSITION. A SECOND LATER, HER HUSBAND, DIMITRI--40ISH, BALD AND SLIGHTLY OVERWEIGHT-- SITS UP, AND FLIPS ON THE LAMP ON THE NIGHT STAND. THOUGH GROGGY, DIMITRI IS CLEARLY ANNOYED. MARGO STARES STRAIGHT AHEAD AS IF SHE'S SEEN A GHOST.

DIMITRI

(Rubbing his eyes)

The wood chipper dream again?

MARGO

(Slight fear)

Yeah. But it's not a dream. More like a premonition. I swear, somewhere that is about to happen. There is just something about that black guy in the #32 jersey that is mesmerizing. It's like he's the new messiah or something. You can just feel his power.

DIMITRI

How can you say that. It's not real. The people aren't real. (LYING BACK DOWN) Go back to sleep.

MARGO

And what about the other creep getting a b.j. from that gorgeous Asian goddess? Yeah, he's spectacularly endowed, but who could go for a guy like that? I mean, what a horrible human being, right? He's not like that sensitive, introspective black guy. Okay, he's not as big in the pants department as Borgoguy. But who could be? That Borgoguy is packin'. But the important thing is that black dude--32, I think--he's somehow going to help mankind in some way. I know it.

DIMITRI

(Fed up)

Look, I've got a meeting with Max in shipping tomorrow...

MARGO

(Interrupting )

That's it. The name of the guy whose office that stud with the huge c0ck--Borgoguy----was getting head in. (PAUSE) Maybe I've been looking at this the wrong way. Do you think 32 and this Max are messengers of some kind? Maybe aliens or beings sending coded messages from other dimensions or astral planes into my psyche while I sleep?

DIMITRI HAS FALLEN ASLEEP. MARGO LOOKS AT HIM WITH THE DESPAIR ONLY KNOWN TO MARRIED COUPLES. SHE LIES BACK DOWN AND SHUTS OFF THE LIGHT. OVER BLACK, WE HEAR THE UNMISTAKABLE BUZZING SOUND OF A VIBRATOR UNDER THE COVERS.

MARGO

(Moaning slightly, then sotto voce)

Get out of my way Asian babe. I'll show you how to get Borgoguy off.

AS THE VIBRATOR BUZZES IN THE B.G, AND DIMITRI SNORES AWAY, WE...

FADE OUT.

Borgo, how come that chick's only got the nails on her ring fingers painted?

I think it's just the light, Guido. Your attention to detail is inspiring, by the way. For your fine efforts, here is another image of the beautiful Maria Ozawa.
